PLEASE READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY. BY ACCESSING OR USING THE SERVICE, CLICKING "I AGREE", OR OTHERWISE INDICATING YOUR ASSENT, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ, UNDERSTOOD, AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS.

1. Description of Service
1.1 Service Model: The Service operates on a "freemium" model, offering both free basic features and paid premium features. Users may use the single image translation feature for free or purchase Credits to access advanced services such as batch translation. The Service is fundamentally provided as an auxiliary tool for efficient text extraction and translation from images.
1.2 Scope of Features:
- (a) Free Services:
- Single Image Translation: Users can translate single images online without charge.
- Online Editing: For both free and paid translations, users can edit and adjust the AI-generated text, styles, and other elements on the results page.
- (b) Paid Services (Credit-Based):
- Batch Translation: This feature is designed for users who need to process multiple images simultaneously, significantly improving efficiency. Using this feature will consume Credits from your account.
1.3 Service Modification: We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to modify, suspend, or discontinue the Service, or any part thereof, including the scope of free and paid features or the pricing of Credits, at any time with or without notice to you. Any significant changes will be announced on the Platform at least seven (7) days prior to their implementation.
2. Credits: Purchase, Use, and Expiration
2.1 Credit Packages: Certain premium features (e.g., batch translation) are billed and consumed using "Credits." We offer various Credit packages, the details of which are available on the purchase page. The primary packages are:
- Package 1: 300 Credits, valid for 30 calendar days from the date of successful purchase.
- Package 2: 1200 Credits, valid for 60 calendar days from the date of successful purchase.
2.2 Expiration Policy:
- (a) YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT ALL PURCHASED CREDITS HAVE A STRICT EXPIRATION DATE. The validity period begins from the moment Credits are successfully added to your account.
- (b) UPON EXPIRATION, ANY UNUSED CREDITS FROM THE CORRESPONDING BATCH WILL BE AUTOMATICALLY AND PERMANENTLY FORFEITED. NO REFUNDS, EXTENSIONS, OR COMPENSATION OF ANY KIND WILL BE PROVIDED FOR EXPIRED CREDITS.
- (c) We may, as a courtesy, send a reminder notification via system message seven (7) days before your Credits expire. However, it is your sole responsibility to track and use your Credits before they expire.
3. Fees and Payment
3.1 Payment Policy: Credits are considered a virtual good for use solely within the Service and are not real-world currency. You acknowledge and agree to the following:
- (a) ALL SALES ARE FINAL AND NON-REFUNDABLE. The Service operates on a prepaid basis. Once a payment for Credits is successfully processed, it is considered final. Except as required by mandatory applicable law, WE DO NOT PROVIDE REFUNDS, EXCHANGES, OR CASH-OUTS for any fees paid for Credits under any circumstances.
- (b) Credits have no cash value and are strictly for use within the Service to access designated premium features. Credits are non-transferable, non-assignable, non-giftable, and cannot be inherited or used for any purpose outside of the Service.
- (c) We are not responsible for and will not protect any Credits obtained through unofficial channels (e.g., private transactions, third-party resellers). You bear all risks and losses associated with such acquisitions.
3.2 Price Adjustments: We reserve the right to adjust the pricing for Credit packages at our sole discretion. New prices will become effective from the date they are posted on the Service. Your continued purchase or use of paid features after a price change constitutes your acceptance of the new pricing.
